What Does OAMS Stand For?

OAMS stands for Orbital Attitude And Maneuvering System

The Orbital Attitude and Maneuvering System (OAMS) is a sophisticated technology used in spacecraft to control and adjust their orientation and trajectory in orbit. By employing a combination of thrusters, gyroscopes, and sensors, the OAMS enables precise maneuvers, stabilization, and navigation, ensuring optimal performance during missions. This system is essential for tasks such as orbital insertion, attitude correction, and alignment for communication or observational purposes, contributing to the overall success and safety of space operations.
